Real Madrid v Barcelona Match Prediction – Preview

Real Madrid C.F.

Real Madrid are currently second in the La Liga table with 22 points. They trail league-leaders Barcelona by goal difference (12 to Barça’s 19). In their last league outing, they narrowly edged out Getafe, 1-0, at the Coliseum Alfonso Perez. Eder Militao scored the only goal of the match at just 3 minutes in, as he received Luka Modric’s corner and fired past keeper David Soria. The Carlo Ancelotti-led side recently saw action in the UCL, where they picked up a point by drawing Shakhtar Donetsk 1-1 in an away game. With Oleksandr Zubkov putting the hosts in front on 46 minutes, Antonio Rudiger finished Toni Kroos’ cross in stoppage time to level the score. How will they fare against their arch-nemesis this Sunday at the Bernabeu?

Real Madrid have won 5 of their last 6 games against Barcelona in all competitions (L1), as many triumps as in their last 18 meetings (W5 D4 L9).
Los Blancos have won 7 of their opening 8 matches in La Liga 2022/23 (D1), the most wins they have recorded at this point in a top-flight season since 199192 (W7 D1).

F.C. Barcelona

Barcelona currently hold a slim lead over Real Madrid in the La Liga table, winning(7) and drawing (1) as much games as their rival. In their last league game, they saw off Celta Vigo 1-0 at the Spotify Camp Nou. Pedri broke the deadlock on just 17 minutes, as he rebounded on Unai Nuñez clearance. The Xavi-led side, however, once again failed to beat Inter Milan for the 2nd time in a row in the UCL. In a tense-filled encounter, Ousmane Dembele (40′) and Robert Lewandowski (82′, 90+2′) managed to earn 1 point as they drew the Nerazzurri 3-3. Can they recover from the disappointment and build on their fragile lead in Spain when they visit the Blancos this weekend?

Following their 4-0 triumph in March 2022, Barcelona can win 2 straight games against Real Madrid in La Liga for the 1st time since March 2019 under Ernesto Valverde. They last won consecutive games against them without conceding in the tournament between November 2009 and November 2010 under Pep Guardiola.
The Blaugrana are undefeated in their 8 games in La Liga 2022/23 (W7 D1), and have conceded only 1 goal – equalling the 2nd lowest number of goals conceded by a side (1) at this point in the competition (Deportivo La Coruma 1993/94 and Real Madrid 1997/98. 1 goal) after Barça themselves in 2014/15 (0 goals conceded).

Real Madrid v Barcelona Prediction – Final Thoughts

Just like its previous editions, this El Clasico looks to be another tight encounter between the two classic clubs. Robert Lewandowski’s Clasico debut promises to add more spice to the event, even with Barcelona losing key players like Memphis Depay to injury. We do think, however that the hosts and reigning UCL champions can pull off a slim victory at home, with Real Madrid having overall options to rival the Blaugrana’s. With that, let’s now take a look at our predictions.
